A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver throne against a dark backdrop, wearing an orange-brown saffron-toned robe draped over one shoulder and a gold-bordered cloth over his lap. He wears a long multi-strand rudraksha mala and a heavy ceremonial gold bead necklace with a gold pendant, plus a beaded bracelet, and has long swept-back dark hair with a red bindi on his forehead. A small microphone is clipped near his ear. Behind him a backdrop bears partial Devanagari lettering reading ध्यान (dhyana). Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated and speaking as the presenter.
